Independent Auditors’ Report

April 6, 2023

To the Members

Paloma Partners IV Holdings, LLC

Houston, Texas

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Paloma Partners IV Holdings, LLC, which comprise the consolidated balance sheets, as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated statements of operations, members’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Paloma Partners IV Holdings, LLC as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basisfor Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of Paloma Partners IV Holdings, LLC and to meet our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Responsibilitiesof Management for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about Paloma Partners IV Holdings, LLC’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are available to be issued.

- 1 -

Auditor’sResponsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements, including omissions, are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.

In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, we:

Exercise<br> professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
Identify<br> and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to<br> fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures<br> include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the<br> financial statements.
--- ---
Obtain<br> an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures<br> that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion<br> on the effectiveness of Paloma Partners IV Holdings, LLC’s internal control. Accordingly,<br> no such opinion is expressed.
--- ---
Evaluate<br> the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting<br> estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial<br> statements.
--- ---
Conclude<br> whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that<br> raise substantial doubt about Paloma Partners IV Holdings, LLC’s ability to continue<br> as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
--- ---

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control related matters that we identified during the audit.

PALOMA PARTNERS IV HOLDINGS, LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2022 AND 2021

NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION

Paloma Partners IV Holdings, LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability Company, was formed on September 15, 2016. Effective January 1, 2017, the members of Paloma Partners IV, LLC assigned 100% of their membership interests in exchange for a 100% membership interest in Paloma Partners IV Holdings, LLC.

The Company is engaged in the acquisition, exploration, and development of properties for the production of oil and natural gas from underground reservoirs. The Companies’ properties are located primarily in Oklahoma.

As an LLC, the amount of loss at risk for each individual member is limited to the amount of capital contributed to the LLC, and unless otherwise noted, the individual member’s liability for indebtedness of an LLC is limited to the member’s actual capital contribution.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Paloma Partners IV Holdings, LLC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: Paloma Partners IV, LLC, Paloma Partners IV TMS, LLC (“TMS”), Excalibur Resources, LLC (“EXR”) and Travis Peak Resources, LLC (“TPR”) and its majority owned subsidiary Chickasaw Royalty, LLC (“Chickasaw”) (collectively the “Company”) and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management believes that these estimates and assumptions provide a reasonable basis for the fair presentation of the financial statements.

The financial statements are based on a number of significant estimates, including the oil and gas reserve quantities, which are the basis for the calculations of depletion, amortization, and impairment of oil and gas properties. The reserve quantities are determined by an independent petroleum engineering firm. However, management emphasizes that estimated reserve quantities are inherently imprecise and that estimates of more recent discoveries are more imprecise than those for properties with long production histories. Accordingly, the estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Investments in highly-liquid securities with original maturities of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. As of and during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company maintained cash deposits with financial institutions in excess of the federally insured limits. The Company believes the credit risk in these deposits is minimal.

Receivables

Trade and other receivables are recorded at their outstanding balances adjusted for an allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined by analyzing the payment history and credit worthiness of each debtor. Receivable balances are charged off when they are considered uncollectible by management. Recoveries of receivables previously charged off are recorded as income when received. No allowance for doubtful accounts was considered necessary at December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Oil and Gas Properties

The Company uses the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and natural gas producing activities. Costs to acquire mineral interests in oil and natural gas properties, to drill and equip exploratory wells that find proved reserves, to drill and equip development wells, and related asset retirement costs, are capitalized. With respect to amounts paid by the Company for its carry obligation, they are recorded to oil and natural gas properties in cost categories incurred as tangible and intangible drilling costs and completion costs and production equipment and facilities.

Additionally, interest costs are capitalized to oil and natural gas properties during the period that unevaluated leasehold costs and costs of wells in progress are undergoing development and preparation for their intended use until reserves have been identified. Costs to drill exploratory wells that do not find proved reserves are expensed when it is determined that the wells are uneconomical and will not be completed. Geological and geophysical costs and costs of carrying and retaining unproved properties are expensed when incurred.

Capitalized costs of producing oil and natural gas properties, after considering estimated residual salvage values, are depreciated and depleted on a field level (common reservoir) using the unit-of-production method using proved developed oil and natural gas reserves.

Unproved property costs, costs of wells in progress and related capitalized interest costs are excluded from the base subject to depletion until the related costs are considered developed or until proved reserves are found. Oil and natural gas leasehold costs are depleted using the unit-of-production method based on total proved oil and natural gas reserves.

PALOMA PARTNERS IV HOLDINGS, LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Upon sale or retirement of a complete unit of a proved property, the cost and related accumulated depreciation, depletion, and amortization are eliminated from the property accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is recognized in the statement of operations. Upon sale of a partial unit of proved property, the proceeds are credited to accumulated depletion.

Upon sale of an entire interest in an unproved property, gain or loss on the sale is recognized, taking into consideration the amount of any recorded impairment if the property had been assessed individually. If a partial interest in an unproved property is sold, the amount received is treated as a reduction of the cost of the interest retained.

Proved oil and natural gas properties are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable, which is generally performed at the field level. Assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there is identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets. The Company estimates the future undiscounted cash flows of the affected properties to judge the recoverability of carrying amounts. If the net costs are in excess of the undiscounted future net cash flows then the fair value is determined using the discounted future net cash flows as the new carrying value with any excess net cost recorded as an impairment with a corresponding amount recorded to accumulated depletion, depreciation and amortization. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, no impairment of proved oil and natural gas properties is required.

Unproved oil and natural gas properties are periodically assessed for impairment of value, and a loss is recognized at the time of impairment by providing an impairment allowance. The Company had approximately $0 and $6,000,000 of unproved properties as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. No impairments were recorded during the year ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Asset Retirement Obligation

The Company records an asset retirement obligation for the abandonment of oil and natural gas producing properties. The asset retirement obligation is recorded at its estimated fair value on the date that the obligation is incurred and accretion expense is recognized over time as the discounted liability is accreted to its expected settlement value. Fair value is measured using expected future cash outflows which consider an estimate of the cost to plug and abandon wells (excluding salvage), future inflation rates and is discounted at the credit adjusted risk-free interest rate.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company uses derivative financial instruments to mitigate the impacts of commodity price fluctuations, protect returns on investments and achieve a more predictable cash flow. FASB ASC, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, (“ASC 815”), requires that every derivative instrument (including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts) be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its estimated fair value.

- 9 -

PALOMA PARTNERS IV HOLDINGS, LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

ASC 815 requires that changes in the derivative’s estimated fair value be recognized in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met, or exemptions for normal purchases and normal sales as permitted by ASC 815 exist. The Company does not designate its derivative financial instruments as hedging instruments and, as a result, recognizes the change in a derivative’s estimated fair value in earnings as a component of other income or expense. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are not held for trading purposes.

Income Taxes

The Company reports as a partnership for federal income tax purposes and its taxable income or loss is passed through to its members and reported on their respective tax returns. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes has been recorded in these financial statements.

The Company follows the provisions of the Income Taxes Topic of FASB ASC 740 related to uncertain tax positions. The Company recognized no liability for unrecognized tax benefits and has no tax position as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain, but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in the statement of operations as interest expense and general and administrative expense, respectively. The Company is open to audit under the statute of limitations from 2019 and beyond.

The Company had no material state income tax expense during the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Environmental

The Company is subject to extensive federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. These laws, which are constantly changing, regulate the discharge of materials into the environment and may require the Company to remove or mitigate the environmental effects of the disposal or release of petroleum or chemical substances at various sites. Environmental expenditures are expensed or capitalized depending on their future economic benefit. Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations and that have no future economic benefits are expensed. Liabilities for expenditures of a non-capital nature are recorded when environmental assessment and/or remediation is probable, and the costs can be reasonably estimated.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Revenue Recognition

Sales of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids are recognized at the point control of the product is transferred to the customer. Virtually all of the pricing provisions in the Company’s contracts are tied to a market index, with certain adjustments based on, among other factors, whether a well delivers to a gathering or transmission line, the quality of the oil or natural gas and the prevailing supply and demand conditions. As a result, the price of the oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids fluctuates to remain competitive with other available oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids supplies.

Oilsales

The Company’s oil sales contracts are generally structured where it delivers oil to the purchaser at a contractually agreed-upon delivery point at which the purchaser takes custody, title and risk of loss of the product. Under this arrangement, the Company or a third party transports the product to the delivery point and receives a specified index price from the purchaser with no deduction. In this scenario, the Company recognizes revenue when control transfers to the purchaser at the delivery point based on the price received from the purchaser.

Oil revenues are recorded net of any third-party transportation fees and other applicable differentials in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Naturalgas and natural gas liquids sales

Under the Company’s natural gas processing contracts, it delivers natural gas to a midstream processing entity at the wellhead, battery facilities or the inlet of the midstream processing entity’s system. The midstream processing entity gathers and processes the natural gas and remits proceeds to the Company for the resulting sales of natural gas liquids and residue gas. In these scenarios, the Company evaluates whether it is the principal or the agent in the transaction. For those contracts where the Company has concluded it is the principal and the ultimate third party is its customer, the Company recognizes revenue on a gross basis, with transportation, gathering, processing, treating and compression fees presented as an expense in its consolidated statements of operations.

In certain natural gas processing agreements, the Company may elect to take its residue gas and/or natural gas liquids in-kind at the tailgate of the midstream entity’s processing plant and subsequently market the product. Through the marketing process, the Company delivers product to the ultimate third-party purchaser at a contractually agreed-upon delivery point and receives a specified index price from the purchaser.

Non-operatedcrude oil and natural gas sales

The Company’s proportionate share of production from non-operated properties is generally marketed at the discretion of the operators. For non-operated properties, the Company receives a net payment from the operator representing its proportionate share of sales proceeds which is net of costs incurred by the operator, if any. Such non-operated revenues are recognized at the gross amount of proceeds to be received by the Company during the month in which production occurs and it is probable the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to receive. Proceeds are generally received by the Company within one to two months after the month in which production occurs.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing and asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:

Level<br>1 Inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement<br>date.
Level<br>2 Inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly<br>for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
--- ---
Level<br>3 Inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available,<br>thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at measurement date.
--- ---

Lease Accounting

Effective January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASC 842 using the modified retrospective approach whereby the Company recognizes leases on its balance sheet by recording a right-of-use asset and lease liability. The Company applied certain practical expedients that were allowed in the adoption of ASC 842, including not reassessing existing contracts for lease arrangements, not reassessing existing lease classification, and not recording a right-of-use asset or lease liability for leases of twelve months or less.

The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s beginning retained earnings or income statement but did have a material impact on the way leases are recorded and presented on the balance sheet and disclosed on the financial statement footnotes.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

The Company evaluates new contracts at inception to determine if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for periodic payments. A lease exists if the Company obtains substantially all of the economic benefits of an asset, and the Company has the right to direct the use of that asset. When a lease exists, the Company records a right-of-use asset that represents the right to use the asset over the lease term and a lease liability that represents the obligation to make payments over the lease term. Lease liabilities are recorded at the sum of future lease payments discounted by the collateralized rate the Company could obtain to lease a similar asset over a similar period, and right-of-use asset over a similar period, and right-of-use assets are recorded equal to the corresponding lease liability, plus any prepaid, or direct costs incurred to enter the lease, less the cost of any incentives received from the lessor.

Reclassification

Certain accounts relating to the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation with no effect on previously reported net income.

NOTE 8: ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION

The Company has asset retirement obligations associated with its future abandonment of oil and gas properties. Under ASC 410-20, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets are recorded when there is a legal obligation to incur such costs.

The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived assets. The following table summarizes the Company’s asset retirement obligation activity.

The following are changes in the asset retirement liability for the year ended December 31, 2022 and 2021:

2022 2021
Beginning obligation $ 4,958,163 $ 4,395,710
Accretion/Change in Estimate 1,292,322 562,453
Ending obligation $ 6,250,485 $ 4,958,163

NOTE 9: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company enters into fixed commodity swap contracts to hedge against future crude oil and natural gas prices. These derivative swaps reduce the Company’s exposure to unfavorable changes in crude oil and natural gas prices, which are subject to significant and often volatile fluctuation. The contracts allow the Company to predict with greater certainty the effective prices to be received by the Company.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of assets listed below:

Derivatives: The fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments are based on a pricing model that uses market data obtained from reputable independent sources and are considered Level 2 inputs, including (a) quoted forward prices for oil and gas, (b) discount rates, (c) volatility factors, and (d) current market and contractual prices, as well as other relevant economic measures. The estimates of fair value are also compared to the values provided by the counterparty for reasonableness and are adjusted for the counterparties’ credit quality for derivative assets and the Company’s credit quality for derivative liabilities. To date, adjustments for credit quality have not had a material impact on the fair market values.

NOTE 11: FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Management has determined that fair value approximates carrying value for cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and notes payable given the short-term nature of these instruments.

NOTE 12: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Gas gathering, processing and purchase agreements

The Company has entered into certain gas gathering, processing and purchase agreements whereby the counterparties will gather, process and/or purchase and resell all gas produced from certain wells. Fees charged will be subject to periodic increases subject to certain ceiling amounts. The agreements are effective up to a term of 10 years and will remain in effect from month to month thereafter unless terminated in accordance with the agreements.

Litigation

From time to time, the Company is involved in various claims and lawsuits, both for and against the Company, arising in the normal course of business. Management believes that any financial responsibility that may be incurred in settlement of such claims and lawsuits would not be material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flow.

Environmental Issues

The Company is engaged in crude oil and natural gas exploration and production and may become subject to certain liabilities as they relate to environmental cleanup of well sites or other environmental restoration procedures as they relate to the drilling of crude oil and natural gas wells and the operation thereof. In connection with the acquisition of existing or previously drilled well bores, the Company may not be aware of what environmental safeguards were taken at the time such wells were drilled or during such time the wells were operated.

Should it be determined that a liability exists with respect to any environmental cleanup or restoration, the Company would be responsible for curing such a violation which occurred during the time which the Company owned the property.

As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, no claim has been made, nor are we aware of any liability that exists, which would be material to the financial statements, as it relates to any environmental cleanup, restoration, or the violation of any rules or regulations relating thereto.

2. In<br>accordance with SEC guidelines, the engineers’ estimates of future net revenues from proved properties and the present value thereof<br>for 2022 and 2021 and subsequent periods are made using the twelve-month average of the first-day-of-the-month reference prices as adjusted<br>for location and quality differentials. These prices are held constant throughout the life of the properties, except where such guidelines<br>permit alternate treatment. The realized sales prices used in the reserve report were $94.14 and $66.55 per barrel of crude oil and $6.357<br>and $3.598 per MCF of natural gas for 2022 and 2021, respectively.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 (REVIEWED) AND DECMBER 31, 2022 (AUDITED)

NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION

Paloma Partners IV Holdings, LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability Company, was formed on September 15, 2016. Effective January 1, 2017, the members of Paloma Partners IV, LLC assigned 100% of their membership interests in exchange for a 100% membership interest in Paloma Partners IV Holdings, LLC.

The Company is engaged in the acquisition, exploration, and development of properties for the production of oil and natural gas from underground reservoirs. The Companies’ properties are located primarily in Oklahoma.

As an LLC, the amount of loss at risk for each individual member is limited to the amount of capital contributed to the LLC, and unless otherwise noted, the individual member’s liability for indebtedness of an LLC is limited to the member’s actual capital contribution.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Paloma Partners IV Holdings, LLC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: Paloma Partners IV, LLC, Paloma Partners IV TMS, LLC (“TMS”), Excalibur Resources, LLC (“EXR”) and Travis Peak Resources, LLC (“TPR”) and its majority owned subsidiary Chickasaw Royalty, LLC (“Chickasaw”) (collectively the “Company”) and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management believes that these estimates and assumptions provide a reasonable basis for the fair presentation of the financial statements.

The financial statements are based on a number of significant estimates, including the oil and gas reserve quantities, which are the basis for the calculations of depletion, amortization, and impairment of oil and gas properties. The reserve quantities are determined by an independent petroleum engineering firm. However, management emphasizes that estimated reserve quantities are inherently imprecise and that estimates of more recent discoveries are more imprecise than those for properties with long production histories. Accordingly, the estimates are expected to change as future information becomes available.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Investments in highly-liquid securities with original maturities of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. As of and during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company maintained cash deposits with financial institutions in excess of the federally insured limits. The Company believes the credit risk in these deposits is minimal.

Receivables

Trade and other receivables are recorded at their outstanding balances adjusted for an allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined by analyzing the payment history and credit worthiness of each debtor. Receivable balances are charged off when they are considered uncollectible by management. Recoveries of receivables previously charged off are recorded as income when received. No allowance for doubtful accounts was considered necessary at December 31, 2023 and 2022.

Oil and Gas Properties

The Company uses the successful efforts method of accounting for oil and natural gas producing activities. Costs to acquire mineral interests in oil and natural gas properties, to drill and equip exploratory wells that find proved reserves, to drill and equip development wells, and related asset retirement costs, are capitalized. With respect to amounts paid by the Company for its carry obligation, they are recorded to oil and natural gas properties in cost categories incurred as tangible and intangible drilling costs and completion costs and production equipment and facilities.

Additionally, interest costs are capitalized to oil and natural gas properties during the period that unevaluated leasehold costs and costs of wells in progress are undergoing development and preparation for their intended use until reserves have been identified. Costs to drill exploratory wells that do not find proved reserves are expensed when it is determined that the wells are uneconomical and will not be completed. Geological and geophysical costs and costs of carrying and retaining unproved properties are expensed when incurred.

Capitalized costs of producing oil and natural gas properties, after considering estimated residual salvage values, are depreciated and depleted on a field level (common reservoir) using the unit-of-production method using proved developed oil and natural gas reserves.

Unproved property costs, costs of wells in progress and related capitalized interest costs are excluded from the base subject to depletion until the related costs are considered developed or until proved reserves are found. Oil and natural gas leasehold costs are depleted using the unit-of-production method based on total proved oil and natural gas reserves.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Upon sale or retirement of a complete unit of a proved property, the cost and related accumulated depreciation, depletion, and amortization are eliminated from the property accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is recognized in the statement of operations. Upon sale of a partial unit of proved property, the proceeds are credited to accumulated depletion.

Upon sale of an entire interest in an unproved property, gain or loss on the sale is recognized, taking into consideration the amount of any recorded impairment if the property had been assessed individually. If a partial interest in an unproved property is sold, the amount received is treated as a reduction of the cost of the interest retained.

Proved oil and natural gas properties are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable, which is generally performed at the field level. Assets are grouped at the lowest level for which there is identifiable cash flows that are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets. The Company estimates the future undiscounted cash flows of the affected properties to judge the recoverability of carrying amounts. If the net costs are in excess of the undiscounted future net cash flows then the fair value is determined using the discounted future net cash flows as the new carrying value with any excess net cost recorded as an impairment with a corresponding amount recorded to accumulated depletion, depreciation and amortization. At December 31, 2023 and 2022, no impairment of proved oil and natural gas properties is required.

Unproved oil and natural gas properties are periodically assessed for impairment of value, and a loss is recognized at the time of impairment by providing an impairment allowance. The Company had approximately $0 of unproved properties as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. No impairments were recorded as of September 30, 2023, and 2022.

Asset Retirement Obligation

The Company records an asset retirement obligation for the abandonment of oil and natural gas producing properties. The asset retirement obligation is recorded at its estimated fair value on the date that the obligation is incurred and accretion expense is recognized over time as the discounted liability is accreted to its expected settlement value. Fair value is measured using expected future cash outflows which consider an estimate of the cost to plug and abandon wells (excluding salvage), future inflation rates and is discounted at the credit adjusted risk-free interest rate.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company uses derivative financial instruments to mitigate the impacts of commodity price fluctuations, protect returns on investments and achieve a more predictable cash flow. FASB ASC, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, (“ASC 815”), requires that every derivative instrument (including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts) be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its estimated fair value.

ASC 815 requires that changes in the derivative’s estimated fair value be recognized in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met, or exemptions for normal purchases and normal sales as permitted by ASC 815 exist. The Company does not designate its derivative financial instruments as hedging instruments and, as a result, recognizes the change in a derivative’s estimated fair value in earnings as a component of other income or expense. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are not held for trading purposes.

Income Taxes

The Company reports as a partnership for federal income tax purposes and its taxable income or loss is passed through to its members and reported on their respective tax returns. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes has been recorded in these financial statements.

The Company follows the provisions of the Income Taxes Topic of FASB ASC 740 related to uncertain tax positions. The Company recognized no liability for unrecognized tax benefits and has no tax position as of September 30, 2023 and 2022, for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain, but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in the statement of operations as interest expense and general and administrative expense, respectively. The Company is open to audit under the statute of limitations from 2019 and beyond.

The Company had no material state income tax expense as of September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Environmental

The Company is subject to extensive federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. These laws, which are constantly changing, regulate the discharge of materials into the environment and may require the Company to remove or mitigate the environmental effects of the disposal or release of petroleum or chemical substances at various sites. Environmental expenditures are expensed or capitalized depending on their future economic benefit. Expenditures that relate to an existing condition caused by past operations and that have no future economic benefits are expensed.

PALOMA PARTNERS IV HOLDINGS, LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Liabilities for expenditures of a non-capital nature are recorded when environmental assessment and/or remediation is probable, and the costs can be reasonably estimated.

Revenue Recognition

Sales of oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids are recognized at the point control of the product is transferred to the customer. Virtually all of the pricing provisions in the Company’s contracts are tied to a market index, with certain adjustments based on, among other factors, whether a well delivers to a gathering or transmission line, the quality of the oil or natural gas and the prevailing supply and demand conditions. As a result, the price of the oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids fluctuates to remain competitive with other available oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids supplies.

Oil sales

The Company’s oil sales contracts are generally structured where it delivers oil to the purchaser at a contractually agreed-upon delivery point at which the purchaser takes custody, title and risk of loss of the product. Under this arrangement, the Company or a third party transports the product to the delivery point and receives a specified index price from the purchaser with no deduction. In this scenario, the Company recognizes revenue when control transfers to the purchaser at the delivery point based on the price received from the purchaser.

Oil revenues are recorded net of any third-party transportation fees and other applicable differentials in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Natural gas and natural gas liquids sales

Under the Company’s natural gas processing contracts, it delivers natural gas to a midstream processing entity at the wellhead, battery facilities or the inlet of the midstream processing entity’s system. The midstream processing entity gathers and processes the natural gas and remits proceeds to the Company for the resulting sales of natural gas liquids and residue gas. In these scenarios, the Company evaluates whether it is the principal or the agent in the transaction. For those contracts where the Company has concluded it is the principal and the ultimate third party is its customer, the Company recognizes revenue on a gross basis, with transportation, gathering, processing, treating and compression fees presented as an expense in its consolidated statements of operations.

In certain natural gas processing agreements, the Company may elect to take its residue gas and/or natural gas liquids in-kind at the tailgate of the midstream entity’s processing plant and subsequently market the product. Through the marketing process, the Company delivers product to the ultimate third-party purchaser at a contractually agreed-upon delivery point and receives a specified index price from the purchaser.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

Non-operated crude oil and natural gas sales

The Company’s proportionate share of production from non-operated properties is generally marketed at the discretion of the operators.

For non-operated properties, the Company receives a net payment from the operator representing its proportionate share of sales proceeds which is net of costs incurred by the operator, if any. Such non-operated revenues are recognized at the gross amount of proceeds to be received by the Company during the month in which production occurs and it is probable the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to receive. Proceeds are generally received by the Company within one to two months after the month in which production occurs.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing and asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:

Level 1 Inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible<br>to the reporting entity at the measurement date.
Level 2 Inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset<br>or liability, either directly or indirectly for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
--- ---
Level 3 Inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent<br>that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset<br>or liability at measurement date.
--- ---

Lease Accounting

Effective January 1, 2022, the Company adopted ASC 842 using the modified retrospective approach whereby the Company recognizes leases on its balance sheet by recording a right-of-use asset and lease liability. The Company applied certain practical expedients that were allowed in the adoption of ASC 842, including not reassessing existing contracts for lease arrangements, not reassessing existing lease classification, and not recording a right-of-use asset or lease liability for leases of twelve months or less.

-11-

PALOMA PARTNERS IV HOLDINGS, LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s beginning retained earnings or income statement but did have a material impact on the way leases are recorded and presented on the balance sheet and disclosed on the financial statement footnotes.

The Company evaluates new contracts at inception to determine if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for periodic payments. A lease exists if the Company obtains substantially all of the economic benefits of an asset, and the Company has the right to direct the use of that asset. When a lease exists, the Company records a right-of-use asset that represents the right to use the asset over the lease term and a lease liability that represents the obligation to make payments over the lease term. Lease liabilities are recorded at the sum of future lease payments discounted by the collateralized rate the Company could obtain to lease a similar asset over a similar period, and right-of-use asset over a similar period, and right-of-use assets are recorded equal to the corresponding lease liability, plus any prepaid, or direct costs incurred to enter the lease, less the cost of any incentives received from the lessor.

Reclassification

Certain accounts relating to the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation with no effect on previously reported net income.

NOTE 3: MEMBERS’ EQUITY

NOTE 9: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (Continued)

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of assets listed below:

Derivatives: The fair values of the Company’s derivative instruments are based on a pricing model that uses market data obtained from reputable independent sources and are considered Level 2 inputs, including (a) quoted forward prices for oil and gas, (b) discount rates, (c) volatility factors, and (d) current market and contractual prices, as well as other relevant economic measures. The estimates of fair value are also compared to the values provided by the counterparty for reasonableness and are adjusted for the counterparties’ credit quality for derivative assets and the Company’s credit quality for derivative liabilities. To date, adjustments for credit quality have not had a material impact on the fair market values.

Litigation

From time to time, the Company is involved in various claims and lawsuits, both for and against the Company, arising in the normal course of business. Management believes that any financial responsibility that may be incurred in settlement of such claims and lawsuits would not be material to the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flow.

Environmental Issues

The Company is engaged in crude oil and natural gas exploration and production and may become subject to certain liabilities as they relate to environmental cleanup of well sites or other environmental restoration procedures as they relate to the drilling of crude oil and natural gas wells and the operation thereof. In connection with the acquisition of existing or previously drilled well bores, the Company may not be aware of what environmental safeguards were taken at the time such wells were drilled or during such time the wells were operated.

Should it be determined that a liability exists with respect to any environmental cleanup or restoration, the Company would be responsible for curing such a violation which occurred during the time which the Company owned the property.

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, no claim has been made, nor are we aware of any liability that exists, which would be material to the financial statements, as it relates to any environmental cleanup, restoration, or the violation of any rules or regulations relating thereto.

Exhibit 99.3


MACH NATURAL RESOURCES LP

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed CombinedFinancial Statements

Introduction

Mach Natural Resources LP (the “Company”) is a limited partnership focused on the acquisition, development and production of oil, natural gas and NGL reserves in the Anadarko Basin region of Western Oklahoma, Southern Kansas and the panhandle of Texas.

On December 28, 2023, the Company consummated the acquisition contemplated by the Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Paloma PSA”), dated as of November 10, 2023, with Paloma Partners IV, LLC and its affiliated companies (the “Sellers”), pursuant to which the Company acquired from the Sellers certain interests in oil and gas properties, rights and related assets located in Blaine, Caddo, Canadian, Custer, Dewey, Grady, Kingfisher and McClain Counties, Oklahoma (the “Paloma Assets”) for aggregate purchase consideration of $733.0 million, including purchase price adjustments and capitalized transaction costs (the “Paloma Acquisition”). The Paloma Acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition as substantially all of the gross fair value of the Paloma Assets was concentrated in proved oil and natural gas properties, which were considered to be a group of similar identifiable assets. The cash purchase price was funded by cash on hand and borrowings from the senior secured term loan credit agreement (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”), entered into among the Company, the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto, Texas Capital Bank, as agent, and Chambers Energy Management, LP, as arranger, in connection with the Paloma Acquisition.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements (the “pro forma financial statements”) have been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, Pro Forma Financial Information, using assumptions set forth in the notes to the unaudited pro forma financial statements. The following unaudited pro forma financial statements reflect the historical results of BCE-Mach III LLC (“BCE-Mach III” or the “Predecessor”), BCE-Mach LLC (“BCE-Mach”), BCE-Mach II LLC (“BCE-Mach II”) and Paloma Partners IV Holdings, LLC (“Paloma Partners”) on a pro forma basis to give effect to the following transactions, which are described in further detail below, as if they had occurred on September 30, 2023 for the unaudited condensed combined pro forma balance sheet (the “pro forma balance sheet”) and on January 1, 2022 for the unaudited condensed combined pro forma statements of operations (the “pro forma statements of operations”):

1. The completion of the reorganization transactions (the “Corporate Reorganization”) described in “Note 1 –<br>Basis of Pro Forma Presentation” included elsewhere in these pro forma financial statements.
2. The initial public offering of 10,000,000 common units (the “Offering”) at a public offering price of $19.00 per common<br>unit and the use of the net proceeds of $168.5 million as follows: (i) to repay the credit facilities of BCE-Mach and BCE-Mach II in full,<br>(ii) to repay a portion of the BCE-Mach III credit facility and (iii) to purchase 3,750,000 common units from the existing owners prior<br>to the Offering (the “Exchanging Members”) for $66.3 million.
--- ---
3. The entry into certain new credit agreements and termination of certain outstanding credit agreements (the “Refinancings”)<br>described in “Note 1 – Basis of Pro Forma Presentation” included elsewhere in these pro forma financial statements.
--- ---
4. The consummation of the Paloma Acquisition pursuant to the terms of the Paloma PSA (together with the Corporate Reorganization, the<br>Offering and the Refinancings, the “Transactions”).
--- ---

The pro forma balance sheet is based on the historical balance sheets of BCE-Mach III, BCE-Mach, BCE-Mach II and Paloma Partners as of September 30, 2023, and includes pro forma adjustments to give effect to the Transactions as if they had occurred on September 30, 2023. The pro forma statements of operations are based on the historical statements of operations of BCE-Mach III, BCE-Mach, BCE-Mach II and Paloma Partners for the year ended December 31, 2022 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and adjusted to give effect to the Transactions as if they occurred on January 1, 2022. All entities contributed in the Corporate Reorganization had a high degree of common ownership, though no individual controlled any of the entities and therefore the transactions are not accounted for as common control transactions, and the acquisitions of BCE-Mach and BCE-Mach II by BCE-Mach III, as the accounting acquirer, were accounted for in accordance with the business combination guidance in ASC 805.

The Company considered the guidance in ASC 805 to determine the predecessor for accounting and reporting purposes. In consideration of the guidance, Mach Natural Resources LP, BCE-Mach, BCE-Mach II and BCE-Mach III were all reviewed to determine predecessor status. Mach Natural Resources LP was not considered to be a substantive entity as it was formed for the sole purpose of receiving the transfer of equity interests and has no other operations. As such, Mach Natural Resources LP was not considered to be the accounting predecessor. For BCE-Mach, BCE-Mach II and BCE-Mach III, relevant financial data was reviewed to determine if one of the entities was significantly larger than the other entities. In reviewing total assets, oil and gas sales and operating cash flow, it was determined that BCE-Mach III was significantly larger by these relevant measures. Additionally, BCE-Mach III had a meaningful operating history over the past three years. As such, BCE-Mach III was considered to be the predecessor and accounting acquirer for accounting and reporting purposes. The pro forma information presented reflect events directly attributable to the Transactions and certain assumptions the Company believes are reasonable.

The pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of financial results that would have been attained had the Transactions occurred on the date indicated or which could be achieved in the future because they necessarily exclude various operating expenses, such as incremental general and administrative expenses associated with being a public company. The adjustments are based on currently available information and certain estimates and assumptions. Therefore, the actual adjustments may differ from the pro forma adjustments. However, management believes that the assumptions provide a reasonable basis for presenting the significant effects of the Transactions as contemplated and the pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the pro forma financial statements. The Company has not included any adjustments depicting synergies or dis-synergies of the Corporate Reorganization or the Paloma Acquisition.

The pro forma financial statements and related notes are presented for illustrative purposes only. If the Corporate Reorganization, the Offering, the Refinancings and the Paloma Acquisition had occurred in the past, the Company’s operating results might have been materially different from those presented in the pro forma financial statements. The pro forma financial statements should not be relied upon as an indication of operating results that the Company would have achieved if the Corporate Reorganization, the Offering, the Refinancings and the Paloma Acquisition had taken place on the dates specified in the pro forma financial statements. In addition, future results may vary significantly from the results reflected in the pro forma financial statements of operations and should not be relied upon as an indication of the future results the Company.

Subsequent to the closing of the Offering, the Company has incurred direct, incremental general and administrative expenses as a result of being publicly traded, including, but not limited to, costs associated with annual and quarterly reports to unitholders, tax return preparation, independent auditor fees, incremental legal fees, investor relations activities, registrar and transfer agent fees, incremental director and officer liability insurance costs and independent director compensation. These direct, incremental general and administrative expenditures are not reflected in the historical financial statements or in the unaudited pro forma financial statements.

The pro forma financial statements reflect pro forma adjustments that are based on available information and certain assumptions that management believes are reasonable. However, actual results may differ from those reflected in these statements. In management’s opinion, all adjustments known to date that are necessary to fairly present the pro forma information have been made. The pro forma financial statements do not purport to represent what the combined entity’s results of operations would have been if the Corporate Reorganization, the Offering, the Refinancings and the Paloma Acquisition had actually occurred on January 1, 2022, nor are they indicative of the Company’s future results of operations.

These pro forma financial statements should be read in conjunction with our historical financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and for the year ended December 31, 2022 included in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and final prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4), respectively, as well as the historical financial statements of Paloma included herewith.


Note 2 – Purchase Price Allocations

The acquisitions of BCE-Mach and BCE-Mach II in connection with the Corporate Reorganization were accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations with BCE-Mach III considered to be the accounting acquirer. The Paloma Acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition. The allocation of the purchase price for the acquisitions of BCE-Mach and BCE-Mach II and the Paloma Acquisition were based upon management’s estimates of and assumptions related to the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of September 30, 2023 using currently available information. Because the pro forma financial statements have been prepared based on estimates, the final purchase price allocations and the resulting effects on the Company’s financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts included in this exhibit to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K. The Company has completed allocations of the purchase prices of BCE-Mach and BCE-Mach II, and expects to complete its allocation for the Paloma Acquisition during the second half of 2024.

The determination of consideration transferred and the allocation of the purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities recorded were as follows (in thousands, except unit data):

Note 3 – Pro Forma Adjustments and Assumptions

The pro forma financial statements have been prepared to illustrate the effect of the Corporate Reorganization, the Offering, the Refinancings and the Paloma Acquisition and have been prepared for informational purposes only.

The preceding pro forma financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses.” Release No. 33-10786 replaced the previous pro forma adjustment criteria with simplified requirements to depict the accounting for the Transactions (“Transaction Accounting Adjustments”) and allows for supplemental disclosure of the reasonably estimable synergies and other transaction effects that have occurred or are reasonably expected to occur (“Management Adjustments”). Management has elected not to disclose Management Adjustments.

Certain reclassification adjustments were made to the financial statement presentation of Paloma Partners in order to conform with the Company’s financial statement presentation for these pro forma financial statements. These conforming adjustments for pro forma presentation are summarized as follows:

Paloma Partners (Historical) Pro Forma Presentation September 30, <br> 2023 December 31, <br> 2022
Balance sheet:
Accounts receivable Accounts receivable - joint interest and other $ 18,280
Accounts receivable - oil, gas, and NGL sales 42,777
Prepaid drilling costs Other current assets 1,819
Derivative asset, noncurrent Other assets (long-term assets) 1,173
Revenue payable and accrued expense Accrued liabilities 2,216
Revenue payable 39,323
Prepayments Accounts payable 5,117
Statements of operations:
Realized gain (loss) on derivatives Gain (loss) on oil and natural gas derivatives $ 8,655 $ (66,674 )
Unrealized gain (loss) on derivatives Gain (loss) on oil and natural gas derivatives 6,912 11,205
Overhead reimbursement General and administrative 7,703 10,932

The Company made the following adjustments and assumptions in preparation of the pro forma balance sheet:

a) Adjustments reflect amounts paid for debt issuance costs in connection with entering into the November 2023 Credit Facility on November<br>10, 2023 and the repayment of the remaining balances outstanding under the Pre-IPO Credit Facilities. The November 2023 Credit Facility<br>was repaid and terminated in connection with entering into the Credit Agreements on December 28, 2023.
b) Adjustments reflect entering into the Credit Agreements on December 28, 2023.
--- ---
c) Adjustments reflect removal of historical cost and accumulated depreciation, depletion, and amortization of oil and gas properties<br>and replacement with current fair value as a result of the Corporate Reorganization and Paloma Acquisition. The fair value of the oil<br>and gas properties was assessed by utilizing a fair value reserve report that used future pricing and other commonly used valuation techniques.
--- ---
d) Adjustments reflect removal of certain operator owned equipment from other property, plant and equipment, as it is included in the<br>new fair value of oil and gas properties, as well as recording BCE-Mach II’s gathering assets at fair value. The fair value of the<br>gathering assets was assessed using the income approach.
--- ---
e) Adjustment reflects the write-off of all loan origination fees related to the credit facilities of BCE-Mach and BCE-Mach II as part<br>of purchase accounting.
--- ---
f) Adjustment reflects removal of goodwill as there is no implied goodwill related to the Corporate Reorganization.
--- ---
g) Adjustments reflect gross proceeds of $190.0 million from the issuance and sale of common units at an initial public offering price<br>of $19.00 per common unit, reduced by underwriting discounts and commissions of $13.3 million, in the aggregate, and additional expenses<br>related to the Offering of $8.2 million and the use of the net proceeds therefrom as follows:
--- ---
To pay down $102.2 million of outstanding borrowings under the Company’s Pre-IPO Credit Facilities. The credit facilities of<br>BCE-Mach and BCE-Mach II were repaid in full, with the remaining proceeds used to repay a portion of the BCE-Mach III credit facility.
--- ---
To repurchase 3,750,000 common units from the Exchanging Members for approximately $66.3 million.
--- ---
8
h) Adjustments reflect recording asset retirement obligations assumed in the Corporate Reorganization and Paloma Acquisition at fair<br>value.
i) Adjustments reflect the recapitalization of the Company as part of the Corporate Reorganization, with<br>the historical equity of BCE-Mach III recast as partners’ capital and elimination of members’ equity related to BCE-Mach and<br>BCE-Mach II. Partners’ capital reflects the fair value of consideration transferred for the acquisitions of BCE-Mach and BCE-Mach<br>II as part of the Corporate Reorganization.
--- ---
j) Adjustment reflects the acquisition deposit and cash paid at closing for the Paloma Acquisition, after the effects of certain preliminary<br>purchase price adjustments and inclusive of capitalized transaction costs. The amounts paid at or prior to closing were in excess of the<br>anticipated final settlement statement for the Paloma Acquisition. Refer to adjustment (l) below for the related purchase price adjustment<br>receivable.
--- ---
k) Adjustments reflect eliminations of assets not acquired and liabilities not assumed as part of the Paloma Acquisition.
--- ---
l) Adjustment reflects the purchase price adjustment receivable related to cash closing payments made in excess of the anticipated final<br>settlement statement for the Paloma Acquisition.
--- ---
m) Adjustment reflects elimination of members’ equity of Paloma Partners as part of purchase accounting.

b) Adjustments reflect changes to depreciation and amortization of other assets that would have been incurred based on the fair value<br>of acquired other property and equipment.
--- ---
c) Adjustments reflect the elimination of interest expense for the Pre-IPO Credit Facilities from the use of proceeds from the Offering<br>and the Refinancings to pay down all debt outstanding under the Pre-IPO Credit Facilities.
--- ---
d) Adjustments reflect interest expense for the Credit Agreements on a pro forma basis assuming the amounts drawn on December 28, 2023<br>were outstanding from January 1, 2022.
--- ---
e) Adjustment reflects the loss on debt extinguishment related to the repayment and termination of the Pre-IPO Credit Facilities and<br>the November 2023 Credit Facility.
--- ---
f) Adjustments reflect the computation of net income per common unit on a pro forma basis.
--- ---
g) Adjustments reflect the impact of the Company’s net issuance of common units as a result of the Corporate Reorganization and<br>the Offering.
--- ---
h) Adjustments reflect the carve-out of revenues and operating expenses for certain oil and natural gas properties that were not acquired<br>from Paloma Partners as part of the Paloma Acquisition.
--- ---
i) Adjustments reflect the elimination of gain (loss) on oil and natural gas derivatives for Paloma Partners related to commodity derivatives<br>that were not assumed as part of the Paloma Acquisition.

Note 4 – Supplementary Disclosure for Oil and NaturalGas Producing Activities

Oil and natural gas reserves

The following tables present the estimated pro forma combined net proved developed and undeveloped oil, natural gas and NGLs reserves information as of December 31, 2022 for Mach Natural Resources’ proved reserves. The Paloma Acquisition transaction adjustments represent adjustments to remove the effects of properties retained by Paloma Partners which were not included in the Paloma Acquisition, from the Paloma Partners historical amounts. Reserve quantities cannot be measured with precision and their estimation requires many judgmental determinations and frequent revisions. The estimates below are in certain instances presented on a “barrels of oil equivalent” or “Boe” basis. To determine Boe in the following tables, natural gas is converted to a crude oil equivalent at the ratio of six Mcf of natural gas to one barrel of crude oil equivalent.

The pro forma oil and natural gas reserves information is not necessarily indicative of the results that might have occurred had the Corporate Reorganization and Paloma Acquisition been completed on January 1, 2022 and is not intended to be a projection of future results. Future results may vary significantly from the results reflected because of various factors, including those discussed in “Risk Factors” included in the Company’s final prospectus filed on October 26, 2023 pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4).

Standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows

The following tables present the pro forma standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows (the “pro forma standardized measure”) applicable to Mach Natural Resources’ proved reserves as of December 31, 2022. The future cash flows are discounted at 10% per year and assume continuation of existing economic conditions.

The standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows, in management’s opinion, should be examined with caution. The basis for this table is the reserve studies prepared by independent petroleum engineering consultants, which contain imprecise estimates of quantities and rates of production of reserves. Revisions of previous year estimates can have a significant impact on these results. Also, exploration costs in one year may lead to significant discoveries in later years and may significantly change previous estimates of proved reserves and their valuation. Therefore, the standardized measure of discounted future net cash flow is not necessarily indicative of the fair value of Mach Natural Resources’ proved oil and natural gas properties.

The data presented should not be viewed as representing the expected cash flow from, or current value of, existing proved reserves since the computations are based on a large number of estimates and assumptions. Reserve quantities cannot be measured with precision and their estimation requires many judgmental determinations and frequent revisions. Actual future prices and costs are likely to be substantially different from the prices and costs utilized in the computation of reported amounts.

The pro forma standardized measure is not necessarily indicative of the results that might have occurred had the Corporate Reorganization and Paloma Acquisition been completed on January 1, 2022 and is not intended to be a projection of future results. Future results may vary significantly from the results reflected because of various factors, including those discussed in “Risk Factors” included in the Company’s final prospectus filed on October 26, 2023 pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4).
